6:12 pm
to pay cuts, you then get to have a kind of critical points where you have to is a stand up for what is what you believe in an or you just accept and leave such stress as driven thousands of british doctors out of the profession or into depression with some even considering suicide. according to zaid on the jaw, they struggle more than easter and mainly d k. the m lack of resources now and the conditions under which they have to work, and that's been exacerbated by the epidemic. allen, the jaws, the medical director of an organization that treats doctors with mental health difficulties and says many of their problems, the systemic given reduced resources and staff shortages. a lot of it is didn't t, excessive workload and working conditions at worry about making errors, worries about causing harm, worry about not being able to provide what it is that you've felt he could provide

going into the profession. burnout rates and british medicine were high before the pandemic. the precious now driving them even higher. many doctors feel strike action is the only remaining recalls to help the public and politicians realize these problems are real and require rapid resolutions. the remarks al jazeera london, let's return to our top story now. the international monetary funds growth forecast, which is the weakest and more than 30 years. douglas renika is a non resident senior fellow at the brookings institution. he's at b. i. m f meetings in washington. and it's from there that he joins his set right now. good to have you with us or douglas the, the i m f wasn't exactly up beat about the prospects for the global economy before . what happened to silicon valley bank and credit suisse? is it fair to say that the fund has been spooked by the specter of the 2000 mate financial crisis?
6:14 pm
i wouldn't draw that linkage. in fact, i'm hesitant to actually ascribe a grand vision for the global economy from the world economic outlook or the other benchmark reports in re issued this week. i think a lot of this is, and i don't want to call a group think in the sense of the negative connotation of that. but i think this is a lot of hard working economists were at their desk and they are asked to plug in the numbers of their forecasts and the zeitgeist of the moment, which has been pretty negative on the back of the recent s, b, b, and other financial issues a has probably made those inputs on the bottom up basis, probably worse than they might be in a couple of months or that they would have been a couple of months ago. that doesn't mean that the i enough is i was the opposite of sugar coating or making it worse than they really feel. but i'm not sure this is a strategic forecast of doom and gloom for the global economy. i think it's
6:15 pm
reflective of a little bit of bad timing on the part of when these forecasts are put to bed. aren't one of the things that it is a warning about not only in the short term outlook, but in the medium outlook. the medium term to is, is d globalization, of course, with the, i'm f was, was a champion of globalization, not so long ago. so it's it. what does it mean by d globalization? douglas? and is it right? yeah, i think i think this is, is in contrast to what are you saying before this is a real issue. so if you've got a pure economic forecast based on limited barriers to trade and a globalized economy, that basically means good services and capital can flow freely. that's probably pretty good for your growth prospects if you start to impair that. and let's be clear, it's not that it's decoupling in the pure sense of the world. but well,
6:16 pm
there's clearly a technological set of barriers being established between the chinese sphere of influence and the u. s. a may be the european sphere of influence and a bunch of other countries that are going to be force to cast their lot with one or the other. we're find some non aligned way in between. that is going to have a negative impact on the global economy. you're actually not facilitating purely economic driven motivations in your strategies, you're including economic security, national security, other strategic priorities. there are cost to that. the costs are, it's higher cost. it's higher inflation is lower growth and b, i left the rural banker factoring that in when they warn about the cost of decouple decoupling. but i'm not saying that that is going to be exactly as bad as everybody is projecting. let's be clear in spite of the fact that we've got a decoupling narrative us china trade has been at its highest ever over the past
6:17 pm
year. not as a percentage of overall trade is an absolute number. we're not looking at actually drawing walls and not allowing cross border trade. we're just looking at a shifting of priorities and that's going to impact global growth. raina gets tortured, douglas penny. thanks dave douglas. what is that in washington? it was the news hour from al jazeera still to come on the program. the united nation, the sector of general is in somalia as a drought forces hundreds of thousands of people to abandon their homes and tempers flare. the n h l, as things get heated on the ice that's coming up later in the schools. ah, attacks and beyond law of killed as many as 100 people. they struck a village in the north. thousands of people have been injured just a warning. you may find images in 30 chang's package. disturbing.

6:19 pm
since the military coups of 2021. and an indication that mammals military says little difference between military and civilian targets. we strongly gone down this guy, not atrocities by the military gases. we call that discourse. jude is to walk right by the military because it's a violation of the geneva convention docket in this the owens. and it's a part of the amenities buttons to attack on the community of the people at the armed forces day parade. last month, the military highlighted. it's apa jets and helicopters had been used increasingly to attack militias resisting military rule around the country. but the generals who command them seemed unconcerned by the civilians being caught in the crossfire. tony chang al jazeera banker. here as president joe biden is travelling to northern ireland to mark the 25th anniversary of the signing of the good friday peace
6:20 pm
agreement. he says he'll emphasize america's commitment to preserving peace between irish republicans of northern island loyalists. while the treaty has held the anniversary, has been marked by violence during a republican parade in london. dairy, a day ahead of biden's arrival. make sure the irish records in the winter very stay place. keep the peace. that's the, that's the main thing. i don't think we're gonna keep your fingers out there is andrew simmons is in belfast. he's with a cert now. live. what are we expecting andrew to see when not biting touches down there in long island. will he be arriving on tuesday night? quite late. he won't see much of a mom in belfast her on tuesday night. but on wednesday he will be visiting her all still university. and he'll be actually not meeting
6:21 pm
fully the he or leaders of the northern ireland parties. but having some gesture of introduction and what have you, he'll be greeted in belfast by richey sudak, the prime minister. and there is some controversy over the good friday agreement, even though it is an incredible achievement. 25 years of peace and some level of stability. but politically right now, the main jewel in the crown are all the good friday agreement, which is a power sharing isn't happening right now because the unit is pulled out of the power sharing government, sir, temporarily. it would seem, but that was a year ago in protest at post bricks it trading rules. and now of course, there is a level of instability, politically, and that's causing concern it, sir? well now, andrew, that president biden takes a keen interest in irish politics. is he,
6:22 pm
though seen as an impartial figure there well, all you, as president, especially irish american ones are, are, are passionate about a peace in northern ireland. but has to be said to biden is, is perhaps more committed to the issue of irish politics than many others. he goes right back to prior to the good friday agreement actually being signed in terms of having pressured a certainly the nationalist side to engage in peace talks. and indeed of course, bill clinton is another example of somebody really important from the u. s. the from the, the white house who pressed for the very last minutes of good friday agreement for some settlement. but when it comes to union this, they don't trust america. they simply dote and when you actually go out and speak to some of them,
6:23 pm
particularly particularly activists. you will hear this sort of sentiment on nobody, any, any, many sees you'll buy in as a standing a company till he sent him office. and hopefully he will be vase in and he's now sandy in years, people and know, and i, and he's, he's an activist and an advocate for ice nationalism hard lane. irish, national, many has been sick all political clear. so we don't expect anything can feel bad. we don't expect anything that's going to even acknowledge the late an aspiration to the union, asking in the let alone advocate for them. so, i mean, he's here to side with his own side of this political dispute. well, boyden will be moving on to the irish republic or on wednesday, having only spent a matter of 14 hours in northern ireland. it's not by any means a long visit and that has disappointed a lot of people. the u. k. government is saying no, this is not a situation where the u. s. and the u. k. i've had me fall out of, there is still good relations, very good relations,
6:24 pm
a with the white house. and soon i will be having a one to one meeting with the president before he leaves for the irish republic and her sentence reporting live from belfast. andrew and he, thanks indeed, a democratic politician expelled from the u. s. state of tennessee's legislature has been re appointed. asheville city council voted on monday to san justin jones back to the state house to fill the vacancy created by his own removal. republican politicians expelled jones and another democrat last week after they protested against the stance of the house on gun control. following him as shooting over colson sharif reports, ah, a march of victory for just engine hundreds rallied in hold of the democratic representative. as he made his way to the tennessee state house, after being appointed back to the sea from which he was expelled only a few days earlier. you know,
6:25 pm
we stand together and we will bite together. tennessee law gives law officials the power to phone vacancies and the state legislature. the nashville city council voted unanimously to restore jones to office 4 days after republican stripped him off his seat, the rebel to expel a member came days after 3 adults. and 39 year old children were killed in a school shooting only a few kilometers from the capitol building that led to protest as entering the state house, calling for stricter gun laws. jones, along with fellow democrats, justin pearson and gloria johnson led chance on the house floor during the demonstration. the so called tennessee 3 all face expulsion bolts. but only 2 men who are black were barred and not their white colleague in a move that was widely criticized as racist. i think expulsion is one of the most drastic and extreme actions that can be taken against the law maker. and it should
6:26 pm
only be used for the most severe actions and behaviors, but these 2 young men were expelled and it completely negated the, the wishes of their voters. moments after being re appointed justin jones was sworn and on the steps of the state capitol. just a similar, walton pearson could be held in his home city of memphis on wednesday and the day in the office with all mom, i'm sorry. oh, jones's appointment is only temporary, especially elections will be held in the near future to fill both seeds for the remainder of the legislature stone. both say they will run but full now. the expansions had become
